Lazio, Marusic offered to Napoli but club hesitate: latest on deal | OneFootball

The possibility of seeing Adam Marusic in a blue shirt next season has once again become a central topic in transfer market discussions, fueled by rumors suggesting that Napoli is interested in the full-back, whose contract with Lazio is expiring. However, upon reconstructing the current situation, the picture appears to be quite different.

Lazio, Marusic offered to Napoli, but the club hesitates: the real situation regarding the deal and Manna’s transfer moves

According to Fabrizio Romano on his YouTube channel, Marusic’s name has been put into the transfer market circuit by his agents, who are offering the player to various European clubs as a free transfer opportunity.

Romano clarifies precisely: “They have talked about Napoli as a possible destination, but from what I understand, Marusic has simply been offered to several clubs as a typical contract-expiry deal.”

The transfer market expert currently rules out any concrete involvement from the blue club: “There is no offer, there are no negotiations, there is no real push to bring him to Napoli. It’s a dynamic orchestrated by his entourage to test the waters ahead of the summer.”

The Marusic file, therefore, is not among the club’s immediate priorities. Manna is observing and evaluating, but has not opened any operational channels for either January or June.

Napoli seeking high-level reinforcements: Goretzka the dream, Frattesi and Frendrup the alternatives

At the same time, the management is analyzing profiles capable of immediately raising the technical level of the team, with particular attention to the midfield department.

According to TMW, one of the ideas circulating in recent weeks is Leon Goretzka, a name of international stature. However, it is a complex operation. Bayern does not seem willing to let him go during the winter window and the player is not pushing to leave Germany. Nevertheless, it remains an open file: Napoli will be ready should the Bavarians open a window of opportunity.

In Serie A, the most well-known target is Davide Frattesi. With the arrival of Chivu, the former Sassuolo player expected more playing time, but in the last five matches he has collected just thirty minutes. Here too, however, a January deal seems complicated: Inter does not appear inclined to let him go mid-season.

Among the alternatives, two solutions particularly appreciated by Napoli’s scouting department have emerged:

Joao Meneses Atta (Udinese): a standout at the start of the season, but the Pozzo family intends to keep him and their asking price is already high.

Morten Frendrup (Genoa): a dynamic, modern profile, highly regarded for his ability to combine quantity and quality.
